Abstract

Introduction: Nowadays the “addiction” is a great problem in the “mental”,”social”, and “health- care” fields. It results in lowering performance of occupational & educational functions in all social groups, and also leads to miscellaneous crimes. There are many different methods for TREATMENT OF ADDICTION, and the first step is detoxification, though it won’t be so successful without a vigorous maintenance therapy. NALTREXONE is an opium antagonist which results in decreasing the craves for opiates and is used for maintenance therapy of addicts in Kermanshah Rehabilitating- Treating Center since 6 years ago. This study aims to determine the relapse rates of addiction in patients under maintenance therapy by NALTREXONE since March 2002 to September 2003.Materials & Methods: 150 opium addicts who were admitted in Kermanshah Rehabilitation Center for NALTREXONE maintenance therapy contributed in this 18 months period study. They received NALTREXONE for 6 months & followed thenafter for another 12 months in respect of their addiction relapse. In the first 6 months opium test (T.L.C) were done month by month & then in 3 months intervals for 12 subsequent months.Results: Relapse rate was 56.7% in the maintenance therapy phase, & 4.7% in the follow up period. The succession rate was 38.7%. In respect of educational & occupational status, the most succession rate was in high level situations & employees. The greatest relapse rate was in young adults (18-25 years old). In respect of the kind of the substance, the way & the occasions of consumption, the highest succession rates were seen in heroin, snuff way, & 2-3 times daily respectively.Discussion: In those addicts whose relapse is delayed till 9 months after detoxification, the chance of long term give up addiction is higher. The employees & those who have more social disciplines are more successful in ceasing opium abuse.
